While he seemed to be trying distance himself from the controversial security company he founded, Erik Prince is assisting in the creation of the "Blackwater" video game.

505 Games announced this week that Prince, a former Navy SEAL and Holland native, and other former Blackwater members have consulted in production of the game to "ensure accuracy of moves, gestures and gameplay."

The game, which one blogger found promising, puts the gamer in the role as Blackwater members battling warlords in a fictional African town. It will use Xbox 360's Kinect technology, which uses a camera to track movements of the player to control characters in the game.

“This game and its immersive Kinect-based approach will give players the chance to experience what it is like to be on a Blackwater team on a mission without being dropped into a real combat situation,” Prince said in a statement.
